The Philadelphia Eagles dominated the Washington Commanders, and the Kansas City Chiefs sneaked past the Buffalo Bills to book a Super Bowl rematch in New Orleans on Feb. 9.
These two teams met in 2023 when the Eagles fell short of the finish line. New Orleans will offer Nick Sirianni a shot at redemption but not everyone is happy that the Chiefs booked a third straight trip to the Super Bowl.
San Francisco 49ers star Nick Bosa‘s mother Cheryl took to Instagram to post a couple of stories outlining her feelings. The first was an older video of Christian McCaffrey saying he hopes both teams lose in the Super Bowl. The second, however, was far more controversial.

The video pointed out a few holds that weren’t called the last time the Chiefs and Niners met in the Super Bowl and also highlighted Kyle Shanahan’s thoughts during the game. Shanahan implored the referees to stay consistent in penalizing both teams instead of targeting the Niners.

“BOYCOTT THE SUPER BOWL!!!” Cheryl Bosa wrote across the video.

Not a lot went the Niners’ way this year, as injuries to key personnel meant they failed to compete for long stretches of the 17-game season. Brandon Aiyuk and Christian McCaffrey were among the big names who sustained long-term injuries.
That left the Niners offense with too many holes to fill. In 2025, however, they could very well follow the path the Eagles took to get to New Orleans. Philadelphia boasts a stout defense under Vic Fangio to keep offenses at bay. An All-Pro running back in Saquon Barkley and a WR tandem of DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown ensure multiple ways to cut through opposing defenses.
The Niners have also welcomed back Robert Saleh, who masterminded a near-historic defense in San Francisco before being poached by the New York Jets to be their head coach.
